Mansion CH

This is Carnsalloch House a stately home built in 1759 of red ashlar. In the 1960's it became a Leonard Cheshire care home and remained as such until the turn of this century when it closed and was briefly run as a private school. Plans to convert the building to luxury flats were refused and the house has remianed derelict since, it has also suffered some fire damage.
I know this house has featured before but I have never explored it before and it is only a 5 minute drive from my home so I hope no one minds!

Thanks for posting but if you're going to go "picture heavy" again please make the images a bit more scintillating than a mold growth. It took nearly 3 minutes for the full page of images to load!!!

Sorry, the pictures were taken over two visits and I did get a bit carried away! Also I realise because of my location, it is unlikely that places near me will receive many visits so I try to let viewers on the forum see as much as possible:)

No worries dude. The forum guidelines indicate the desired number of pix on a report but when a report is ofsomewhere mint, or somewhere really unusual, then nobody minds more pix than normal. I'm guilty of putting lots of pix up too! :( Thanks for your reply, and keep up the good work! :)

About us

DerelictPlaces is a forum for people with an interest in the history and documentation of disused, derelict and abandoned buildings to come together and share their experiences, photography and historical findings. Our military, industrial and historical heritage is fast disappearing under the pressure of regeneration, the need for new housing, and often through simple neglect; Our aim is to document these places before they disappear entirely.
